FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Q. What is your cancellation policy?A. It's quite simple, you need to give us 24 hours notice if you want to avoid paying for a session you can't make. Why do we do this? For two reasons, firstly there are others who may be desperate to get in to see us, this period allows us to get them in for a session. The second is our livelihood, when we can't fill a slot we lose money and other potential new clients. This notice period is an industry standard for doctors, physios and most other medical practices.
-
Q. How does sports massage differ from normal massage?A. Sports massage is applied with your goals in mind, meaning we look at what you need and then apply the relevant technique(s) to help you reach your goals. These techniques vary from: finding muscle imbalances which may be the cause of your current issue and offering remedial exercises to correct them; questions about your sports equipment or mechanism of injury; along with treating the tissues which are crying out for attention. Your goals may vary depending on whether you are carrying an injury or are just needing to bring your legs back to life for your next training session.
-
Q. How often should I have Sports Massage?A. If time and budget were not an issue, every week. But the reality is they are. So if you are on a budget and treating yourself to a massage, then (as a sports person) I would suggest having the treament prior to your event so you are ready to compete.
-
Q. I don't play sports - can I still have a Sports Massage?A. Overuse injuries can occur in everyday life and are generally brought on by the things we do repetitively everyday. We will use sports massage to treat you and look at what day to day activities could be the cause and will give you simple solutions to help with this. Generally making a few small changes can have a big effect.
-
Q. What should I wear?A. Towels are used during the treatment and would require that you keep your underwear on, however if you feel more comfortable, you can bring a pair of shorts. Stretchy underwear is best, especially if we are treating legs.
